Mozilla Hacks Blog Metrics, January 2015

[Havi Hoffman]

Hello All,


Here are the metrics for the Mozilla Hacks blog (hacks.mozilla.org) for
January 2015. We got off to a slow start after the new year and the holiday
lull, but closed with strong numbers on our 5 published posts, an exciting
lineup of new posts and new authors, and some strong successes in the first
week of February.

In Q1, the Hacks team began to focus on great technical content from
colleagues and peers within Mozilla’s engineering teams -- writing about
the products we are building every day and about side projects people are
hacking on. Big thanks to the authors of January, three of whom were new
contributors to the Hacks blog.

In January, thanks to the following authors: Mason Chang, Guillaume Marty,
Jordan Santell, Florian Scholz, Greg Weng (Moz TW)

If you have ideas or suggestions for Hacks blog posts, please share them on
the wiki. Bonus points if you sign up to write the post too:

to hearing from you!


Thanks,


Havi
